Something for my friends in the frozen North
Got the Healey out last Saturday for about a 50 mile drive on the Natchez Trace Parkway near my home. I had other things I should have been doing, but the car was calling me. Probably should have thrown a bucket of water on it, though. Weather was too nice to waste, so I just took off.
Temp was in the 70's which is unusually warm for November, even in the deep south. I had made a couple of adjustments to the suspension and needed to try them out. At least, that's what I told my wife! Seriously, she was feeling under the weather and I had a case of the lazies.
Here's a very short video, windshield bugs and all.

BTW - I'm getting used to the car. It's broken in now, so I've been romping on it a little. Moocho fun!!! It'll scream easily to 6500 (rev limit), but also is perfectly happy to laze along at 1700 in 6th. Still tuning on things, but it's plenty fun just as it is.

Simultaneously happy about the car and jealous about the weather!
Looking forward to seeing some video of it revving out a bit
I was taking an ice scraper to my Mini yesterday
